NY Fashion Week...Preen!!

Graphic and modern, but certainly not too conceptual to wear, Preen was by far my favorite over-all collection. Although it embodied all the trends we're seeing for fall (black & white, cut-outs, high hemlines, etc.), it wasn't smeared with needless details and costume-y dramatics. Each piece was executed thoughtfully and as I continue to flip through the photos I'm appreciating the subtler looks more and more, especially the coats and mix of textures.(photos via style.com)

Intro

This blog is not a store.It does not have a charming storefront, fashionable employees, or a discount rack. It doesn't require balance sheets, or a business plan, nor does it's survival rest in the strained arms of our economy. It is simply a concept and a dream that consumes my thoughts and pulls at my heart. Which is precisely why I've chosen this as an alternative venue. I want to create an atmosphere, here, to emulate what has not yet come to fruition out there.This blog is my store, for now.
